Based on Michael’s communication up to the moment he decided to ignore me, I think we should assume that even if we handed him a finished version of the current app, there’s a good chance he would do little to promote it.

You two own the copyright to the code by virtue of having created it. You’ve put tens, maybe hundreds of hours of effort into building this tool. It can help a lot of people help hearing impared people more effectively.

I don’t think the emotions of one man should prevent this hard work from being of social benefit. I strongly encourage you to open source the project and put it up on Heroku so that people can use it. We will certainly do everything in our power to promote it.

Alright.

@CodeNonprofit

Ultimately, we do pro bono work that benefits these organizations to give your portfolio a leg up. We want what’s in the best interest for the two of you. I understand @yaskyj that you’re in contact with the stakeholder outside of our process, but as far as Free Code Camp goes - the stakeholder has abandoned our project.

@yaskyj

I didn't realize that he hadn't responded to anyone but me.

@QuincyLarson

Justin and Arthur, how many more hours do you think it will take you to get this project to a finished state?

Can we talk on the phone 4-way? Michael and I are already together on a call

Justin Rogers

@yaskyj

Everything is pretty much done, except for the transcript upload from text, video control bar, and figuring out mp3 conversion (if that's possible through an api since it's against YouTube TOS).

Yeah, sure.

Quincy Larson

@QuincyLarson

OK

I’ll call both of you. One moment.

Michael D. Johnson
